Depends on the amount -- but yes, generally sounds just about right. There *is* spam out there, that basically dos not hit any rules other than Bayes and some URI and DNS BLs. Now, as you are post-processing (old?) messages for some stats, it is entirely possible the blacklist listings have expired, as someone explained before. Given the previous discussions and this description, I can only assume you are not using Bayes -- so that won't trigger either. > I have like 1800 emails but it sees only 5 of them as spam. Mixed up these numbers, eh? ;) -- char *t="\10pse\0r\0dtu...@ghno\x4e\xc8\x79\xf4\xab\x51\x8a\x10\xf4\xf4\xc4"; main(){ char h,m=h=*t++,*x=t+2*h,c,i,l=*x,s=0; for (i=0;i<l;i++){ i%8? c<<=1: (c=*++x); c&128 && (s+=h); if (!(h>>=1)||!t[s+h]){ putchar(t[s]);h=m;s=0; }}}
